So tired of people saying Cambodia only exports raw materials… now this is original!
For years, all the talk around our economy has been about how we just export raw, unrefined natural resources or low-value goods without transforming them ourselves. People in Cambodia (and across the word) act like we can't create high-end, finished products that can compete globally.
Now this is cool, just stumbled on their facebook page. It's simple, it's salt. but we it's turned into a premium thing, we can get inspired by this and start transforming and creating more stuff like this Garuda Premium Sea Salt- they put 24 carat gold flakes in the salt (must be expensive!)
---yet it looks really luxurious...easily something i'd see in a high-end boutique in Paris, Tokyo, or New York, but it’s ''grown'', harvested, and beautifully packaged right here in Cambodia
What other locally made produce do you think we could transform and export.. to make our culture shine abroad and our economy grow?
